“This establishment of Framatome Bulgaria in support of our recent services contract is an important milestone in our long-term cooperation with Bulgaria and for the development of our regional activities,” said Catherine Cornand, Senior Executive Vice President of Framatome’s Installed Base Business Unit.

“Framatome will continue to develop local support services to ensure the reliable long-term operations of Kozloduy NPP is available around-the-clock for the production of safe, low carbon energy.”
